well i'm proud to have been lucky enough to take the picture that maybe define. the start of the environmental movement i mean the bigger a start. it really and has influence well beyond my imagination a lot of people not only is the earth fragile and and beautiful but it's very small and i think that last message is just beginning to creep in to people that we're not the center of the universe as people would like to think and i think that picture along with the hubble telescope deep space view you know where the even looking through a tiny little hole in the universe there's millions of go axes and so though we have still i think a lot of people think we're the center of the universe or it's clear that that's not true and i think the earth rise picture has helped people start thinking in a more expansive way but you guys all three of you you're pretty religious you had religious convictions yet faith when you see for the first time how the earth right

does that somehow change your perception of god based religion. if people everybody's free to believe what they want and of course if you go back you know sooner or later you have to wonder in the creation of the universe who was it or what was it that divided by zero and we get all this but i must say it did affect my religious views they became much more much broader than mine errol catholic upbringing and john graham said that complement was for all humanity did you feel that at that time we felt the well particularly. i felt it as a air force fighter pilot fighting the cold war. that we were there to prove not just to ourselves and the american people but to prove to the whole world that america was a second rate when certainly. the soviets now the russians with sputnik in.

the missile gap remaking america look really bad when you think of that garrett want us to send it to me. i don't think this the russians have gotten the full credit for sputnik. i mean i know he's a hero of the soviet union but you know me he just had to be at the right place at the right time but to be the first human to. get away from the earth we were the first to get really away from the earth but he was the first to get up there i think. that makes him and the russia and soviet union. something they could really be proud of now yes that if it hadn't been for the russians wouldn't have had public support for the taxes that were required to beat those comments as an air force pilot how did the cold war motivate you well i was

chasing him and i say dirty commies i well i'd probably bet it but. i was chasing the russian bombers soviet bombers around iceland and carrying nuclear rockets to shoot them down if they attacked our country and there would not be the political support for john f. kennedy's sort of crazy statement of what we're going to go to the moon had it not been for american paranoia over the russians over the soviets and that was particularly made clear even to the farmers in iowa who pay taxes by sputnik and that space budgets right now are being cut. defense budgets are still secure yet we know that you know to say it's in a financial trouble as a former defense industry top man which should be the top priority right now well. that's a long i have a somewhat different than most of my colleagues do i think the our space program has been on the wrong track ever. since the end of apollo with the space shuttle

well i think the space shuttle is spectacular it is a dead end program and that certainly brought the point by it being terminated and now we have to hitch rides with our prior competitors who must be laughing up their sleeves that the americans who got to the moon first now have to ride on russian rockets. the space shuttle is supposed to cost one tenth per pound orbit in the saturn five modified modified it cost ten times now in retrospect that's a hundred fold so the space shuttle is spectacular as it is a nasa hollow from the inside out so it's too bad in my view that we went down this path right it did a lot of wonderful things but it streamlined high costs not the least of which is basically to. marginalize nasa now the other question which should be i mean i

think every nation needs to make sure that its defenses are strong enough to defend its country and maybe do a little more i think united states is trying to be the policeman around the world i frankly think that's a mistake. that's our peace loving president obama is doing that. do you find that the world is less fascinated now with the space exploration that it was the nineteenth it seemed to feel like the public interest shifted to a different sphere. first of all the apollo program was not an exploration program it was a political program to demonstrate to the soviets the rest the world that the united states was not second rate we barely were able to do that did you feel that it was a political mission when you're flying. that we're our job was put the american flag on the moon and if we had any time to pick up rocks well ok but don't don't cause and you don't have. the accidents. fortunately the rest of the world and

american public are also fascinated by the exploratory aspects they're not willing to pay for that they're only willing to pay to beat the. russians are. they being evil well i mean that's the way america felt and i'm sure that the people of my age in the soviet union felt the same way moves mutually assured destruction you know you can't get too cooperative over that but how important is the aspect of exploration right now for you well it's important but we don't have the public to pay for their won't they won't pay the cost of going to mars ok they'll they'll pay to my amazement they'll pay to go into afghanistan and you think learned from the soviets that that was a big mistake. but they all seem to pay for that the obama is finding out that maybe they won't but. exploration everybody can rhapsodize

over the whole bowl but they're not willing to pay the taxes for unfortunately if my words are ok if i were premier i'd say we're going to go back to the moon. not not. not not premier when you think about the average age of a team on the ground twenty four and looking back at it do you do you feel safe to trust a bunch of twenty year olds now trust them more than the old guys. well that was in a period when we had some very good elderly leadership. but that leadership was smart enough to leave a lot of the technological and quick decisions up to the young people it was very they had a lot of screening and they were tested time and time again but there was a. management listen to the younger people.

and i'm not sure i could say the same about the soviets thank you very much for the sentry nice to be with you so if you. will come to the what makes a big splash in the world of high tech business what turns events science into i can't change products they don't understand. these is going to be followed russian innovators to e.g. bidders abroad and their big breakthrough back home spotlight on stone on technology update here. we've got the future covered. if you're followed up on my death. period. back and. it goes back to
